[It was certainly a story of girl meets boy at Chanel.] This story is all about what would happen if Coco Chanel met James Dean, ... Coco always borrowed from the boys. She took their jackets, and made them into uniforms for women.

Chanel is composed of only a few elements, white camellias, quilted bags and Austrian doorman's jackets, pearls, chains, shoes with black toes. I use these elements like notes to play with.

The story with anorexic girls - nobody works with anorexic girls. That has nothing to do with fashion.

Boy meets Girl, So What?

More like the movie where the guy meets a smart girl who wears a lot of sweaters and drinks cocoa. They talk about books and issues and kiss in the rain.

And it was always the stories that needed the telling that gave us the rope we could cross any river with. They balanced us high above any crevasse. They made us be natural acrobats. They made us brave. They met us well. They changed us. It was in their nature to.
